Nintendo and Donkey Kong Visit the L.A. Zoo During Memorial Day Weekend

Gorilla Reserve to Host Fun Activities and Game-Play Sessions to
Celebrate the Launch of Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D.

WHAT:During Memorial Day weekend, Nintendo of America and the
Los Angeles Zoo will be hosting a four-day event and renaming the
gorilla habitat as "Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D at Campo
Gorilla Reserve" to celebrate the release of Donkey Kong Country
Returns 3D for Nintendo 3DS and to bring awareness to the endangered
gorillas, whose relatives in the wild face threats such as poaching and
habitat loss. The fun and educational activities include a "Donkey Kong
Interactive Experience" involving the zoo’s family of lowland gorillas.
The animals will receive cardboard barrels (inspired by the ones found
in the game) that are filled with treats and that enrich their behavior.
Visitors and fans can also play Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D at
various kiosks in the zoo and take pictures with the costumed Donkey
Kong character.
